Happy New Year to all of our Mirror80 readers! Wishing you a festive New Year’s Eve celebration and a restful New Year’s Day. Thank you for making this past year at Mirror80 a fabulous one. Over the next few days, we will be sharing some of our favorite moments from 2013, as well as our goals for the year ahead. For now, we’d love to share our latest Pinterest board, which is packed full of last-minute retro-style New Year’s party ideas, as well as sparkling vignettes for the upcoming awards show season (anyone hosting an Oscar party)?
A Retro New Year’s Eve Party
Hi, Everyone! Can you believe it’s almost 2014? What are your New Year’s Eve plans? My hubby and I were thinking of throwing a party… But over the course of the last month or so, we’ve dealt with our fair share of chaos, including a car accident and a surgery. So going out to eat, then coming back home to toast the New Year in a low-key fashion sounded just right to us this year. But that didn’t stop me from staging a Retro Foodie photo shoot in honor of the upcoming holiday. And this vignette will also work for an awards show party (hey, the Golden Globes and the Oscars are on the horizon). So read on for all the details…
A Retro New Year’s Celebration
Greetings! I’m in the midst of planning this weekend’s Retro Foodie photo shoot. It’s a New Year’s celebration–with an ’80s twist. The plan is to incorporate lots of silver and gold, as well as a hot shade of teal. For an accent color, what would go better with teal than mauve? But we’re updating things a bit with one of today’s hot blushing colors: rose gold. Hints of pink will be evident in details like truffles and a signature champagne cocktail I’m perfecting.
